4.7.4.12 Adjusting the parking brake
The parking brake is adjusted in the factory and readjustment is not necessary
unless parts of the brake mechanism have been changed. Adjusting the driving
brakes affects the parking brake.
The parking brake is controlled with a spring return pressure cylinder and it is
connected to the drive brake mechanism by a cable.
IMPORTANT: Always adjust the driving brakes before adjusting the parking
brake.
1. Start the tractor.
